Default Interesting note on GoPro cameras

My wife and I went to Best Buy last night after eating supper and I notice a big display of GoPro cameras in the store along with all of the accessories and I mean all of them.... The price were the same in the store as they are on line. The nice thing about it you get to touch and feel what your buying. One advantage no shipping cost....

Default VIO Camera

Stan
I also use a camera that is call the VIO POV. A good friend of mine turn me on to this one, here is the link to it http://www.vio-pov.com/
It a good camera and it has a remote control to record and stop. But every time it stops it creates a new file of that footage, not in less they added a pause button on the newer units. It's the same as the GoPro as far as lens is a wide-angle view you can get smaller angle lens. The camera unit is small but it attaches to the handle unit by a cord. The unit has a viewing screen so you can see what you’re filming. This video clip was all completely done with my VIO camera at Mentone a few years ago. You can see the unit in the left side of my cockpit with a cord going to the camera. I always strap the remote right to the unit because it had big buttons that I could push to stop and start the recording process. The only bad thing about it just makes things look far away and a little fish eyed.
